Badlands Fly-In ...from Larry Vetterman

"The Badlands flyin hosted by Vetterman Exhaust Inc. and HSR Fueling is scheduled for Sept. 6-9. Here is a list of the events that we have planned this year.

Arrive thursday- Evening buffet at Wooleys restaurant.

Fri. events for the thursday arrivals: tour the Mammoth Site and do a cave tour at Wind Cave National Park. Return to the airport to meet the friday arrivals and for the hangar party/ evening meal at Vetterman's hangar.

Sat. arrive at the airport and get a preflight briefing and then depart for the Black Hills Aerial tour. The tour route will be the same as before ie. Mount Rushmore, Crazy Horse, Spearfish Canyon, Devils Tower, Bear Butte, Wall Drug, view the badlands and return to Hot Springs. For those that do not want to do the aeiral tour on sat., we may have another Mammoth Site tour if enough attendees request it. By popular request the sat. evening meal will be at the Allen Ranch which is in a beautiful country setting just out of town.

Sun. arrive at airport and depart for home or other destination."
Here you go. We hope to make it again this year.

Not as of right now. I'm sure when we get closer to that date we will know more. For those who haven't gone before, there are shuttle services going from the airport to the hotel and to the attractions.

This is a great, low keyed event, put on by Larry Vetterman that should not be missed. The flying is amazing, MT. Rushmore tours, ect. Great food, good times, good people.
